Sometimes van-life is parking in your in-laws driveway. (By choice!)

I am so thankful for this lifesaving adventure pod and its nearly 4 years of memories 🚐

Sending a handwritten postcard expressing gratitude is a subtle but powerful countercultural way to spread joy. ✌️

@ericawriter I haven't tried it yet personally but NerdWallet seems to be the most popular of the free options.

GoodBudget charges if you have more than one spending account or need more transaction history.

Empower comes with a lot of aggressive sales pitches for their investment mgmt.

[Andy Moran, CFP® @andymoranio]

What do you use to track your spending?

A few "free" options I'm aware of:

• NerdWallet
• GoodBudget
• Empower

I switched from Mint to Monarch Money earlier this year and include it for my ongoing clients, though it's normally $14.99/mo or $8.33/mo annually.
